This device is worn like a hat.
360º cameras mounted on top constantly monitor the surroundings and search for recognised advertisements and also for things that algorithmically look like adverts. Built-in GPS is also used for known advertisement locations.
When an advertisment is detected, a long
arm swings down with a fan-shaped screen on the end to block the advert from view.
Up to 16 arms csn be delployed for maximum protection. The fans can open or shut to give wider or more targeted coverage.
Now you can walk around the city streets and never have to see an advertisement again!

why not have the brim of the hat hang down in front of the user with a 360-degree viewscreen? then you won't need the mechanical blocker; you just edit the images that are conducted from the cameras to the screen. |
|
| |
Whichever way you do it, you really ought to do it for each eye independently. Or else you will have to have very large blocked areas. |
|
| |
So have double arms, and the blocking panels are made of slats oriented so that one eye can see through between the slats while the other is blocked. |
|
| |
A big consumer of these will be ad agencies who will want to
test that their redesigned ads aren't caught by the hat's algorithm. |
|
| |
But even if not, this will still allow us to see Rentisham's ads, right? |

I can see it. Does that mean my hat is working? |

You forgot to add the link. |

This is what "Google Glass" should do. Instead of a
digital display screen, a digital dark screen.

Good advert for Rentisham's Flenting wax. |
